The Legend of Zelda: Rise of the Forgotten

Prologue

Year 182

Tap, tap, tap. Cassandra got up to check the door. Her hair was golden blonde and her eyes looked sad. Her dress suggested middle class origins. As she open the door her eyes widened to see a man carrying a sword on his back. His hair was dirty blonde and his eyes, though caring, pierced the night. His mouth curved into a warm smile.

"Hello Cass" he said, his eyes never parting from hers.

"Rem!" she exclaimed and tackled him "They said you were dead!"

"Well I just might if you tackle me like that again" he said, groaning as he got up. He rubbed his back tenderly because he had fallen on his sword. He looked at her again to see that she had been crying recently. "Honestly, I told that as long as you live I will protect you, meaning I won't die… May I come in?"

"Oh yes of course" she said blushing. They went inside to see a simple yet elegant home. Rem took off his sword and set it in the corner.

"So what have you been up to these past few months?" Rem said

"I've been… Oh I'm just so happy you're alive!" she said looking at him.

"I told you I will not di—", he was cut off as he heard glass shatter and felt a sharp pain in the side of his head. He gathered from Cassandra's wide eyed expression that he had just been assassinated. As he was falling he let out a slim smile as if to say "well isn't this just great". He hit the floor and his head started feeling warm as blood ran from the wound. He closed his eyes and the last thing he heard was Cassandra calling his name.
